1 Tesalonika 2:7-8
2:7 1 although we could have imposed our weight as apostles of Christ; instead we became
2 little children
3 among you. Like a nursing mother caring for her own children,
2:8 with such affection for you
4 we were happy
5 to share with you not only the gospel of God but also our own lives, because you had become dear to us.
1 Tesalonika 2:17-20
Forced Absence from Thessalonica
2:17 But when we were separated from you, brothers and sisters, 6 for a short time (in presence, not in affection) 7 we became all the more fervent in our great desire 8 to see you in person. 9
2:18 For we wanted to come to you (I, Paul, in fact tried again and again) 10 but Satan thwarted us.
2:19 For who is our hope or joy or crown to boast of 11 before our Lord Jesus at his coming? Is it not of course you?
2:20 For you are our glory and joy!
